I don't know what else it would say. It means exactly what it says. It's 
telling you exactly what it can't do. Sure, it isn't telling you _why_ it's 
illegal, but error messages don't usually say that sort of thing anyway. So, 
if you have a good suggestion as to improve the error message, please create 
an enhancement request for it, but as far as I can tell, it means exactly what 
it says, and I don't know how it could be friendlier.
